During a day in the office, I do a lot of small and big tasks. Therefore, I have to log to a lot of different projects and tasks. If I compare multiple days, 80% of the time entries recure. I miss a possibility, to save presets (Project, Task, Tag, Comment, Duration) which I can use to start the time tracking including a shortcut for it.
To save more time, it would be awesome, if these presets would be available in the sidebar of macOS X and in the widget section on the iPhone and iPad. www.timeryapp.com has a nice solution for Toggl. They call it āSaved Timersā and āWidgetā.
We plan to add some kind of an autofill feature in the future. Itās not exactly what youāre referring to, but it will make tracking time on recurring time entries much faster and easier.
The idea for the autofill feature is to simply offer to autocomplete your time entry if you start typing the details of a time entry you already have (similarly to what Toggl does in their web app).
However, there are no plans to build an app for this, such as Timery app.
Oh thatās sounds cool. Looking forward to it.
Or will you support Apple iOS Shortcut? That would allow me, to build my own shortcuts and automation Or widgets for iOS and MacOS could also be a great solution. Just some ideas
The overall concept of presets (ideally with keyboard shortcut!) is excellent and very needed. But please, for windows and android too! (between work and home I use mac os, ios, windows, and android. it gets confusing and frustrating when a given feature isnāt available on the device Iām currently usingā¦)
I am writing to support the above request for the implementation of a feature that would facilitate the selection of those projects/tasks that one uses frequently.
And, indeed, the best way in which to achieve this would be to have an icon sitting in the āmenu barā (this is for a macOS, in a winOS with would be an icon on the ātask barā) that one could click to render visible a shortlist of the last e.g. 10 executed tasks (the number could be a user setting); one would then click on the task of interest, and this would automatically stop the time-tracking of the currently running task and start the time-tracking for the one just clicked.
I submitted a video to the āsupport teamā illustrating the workings of the suggested feature (it is implemented in the very simply, yet precious, TimeTracker software by Ivan Dramaliev).
